Epilepsy and Obstructive Sleep Apnea

open access: yesEuropean Neurology, 2006
A few publications documented the coexistence of epilepsy and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). The extent, nature, and clinical relevance of this association remain poorly understood. We retrospectively reviewed the database of our sleep center to identify patients with both sleep apnea and epilepsy.

Obstructive sleep apnea

Disease-a-Month, 1994
The high prevalence of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) has only recently been appreciated, in part because the symptoms and signs of chronic sleep disruption are often overlooked in spite of their debilitating consequences. They typically develop insidiously during a period of years.

Obstructive Sleep Apnea

Continuum, 2023
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is the most common type of sleep-disordered breathing. This article describes advances in the diagnosis, testing, treatment, and monitoring of OSA.Home sleep apnea testing and in-laboratory polysomnography are the most commonly used diagnostic tools in the identification and monitoring of OSA, but new methods for diagnosis

Obstructive sleep apnea

Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology, 2003
Obstructive sleep apnea is an increasingly well-recognized disease characterized by periodic collapse of the upper airway during sleep. This leads to either complete or partial obstruction of the airway, resulting in apneas, hypopneas, or both. This disorder causes daytime somnolence, neurocognitive defects, and depression.

Obstructive sleep apnea

2022
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a disease that results from loss of upper airway muscle tone leading to upper airway collapse during sleep in anatomically susceptible persons, leading to recurrent periods of hypoventilation, hypoxia, and arousals from sleep.

Obstructive Sleep Apnea

Clinics in Chest Medicine, 1985
This chapter provides an account of obstructive sleep apnea that is designed for clinicians. Current ideas about the mechanism of upper airway obstruction are reviewed, and the clinical features are discussed in a manner intended to facilitate the clinical assessment of such patients.

Obstructive Sleep Apnea

JAMA, 2000
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a prevalent disorder, affecting 2% to 4% of the adult population [1]. It is characterized by recurrent apneas and hypopneas during sleep with resultant oxyhemoglobin desaturations and sleep fragmentation. The clinical sequelae of OSAmay be severe and include daytime hypersomnolence, cognitive impairment, systemic and/or

Sleep Deficiency in Obstructive Sleep Apnea

Clinics in Chest Medicine, 2022
Sleep deficiency in patients with obstructive sleep apnea includes abnormal quality, timing, and duration of sleep, and the presence of other comorbid conditions. These include insomnia, circadian misalignment disorders, and periodic limb movements of sleep.

Obstructive Sleep Apnea

Pediatric Clinics of North America, 1989
Obstructive sleep disorders and apnea are commonly seen in children of all ages. The obstruction usually causes snoring and varying periods of interrupted breathing during sleep. Obstructive sleep disorders cause multiple physiologic disturbances and should be treated before they become severe.
